The Tale of a Tiger (Italian : La storia della tigre )[1] is a dramatic monologue by Dario Fo . Fo collected material for it during a June 1975 visit to China with his wife Franca Rame and other members of their theatre company, and he toured around Italy with it in 1978.[1] [2]
Plot summary [ edit ]
During Mao's Long March across China, a revolutionary soldier is wounded. His comrades leave him behind. Gangrene sets in, and he believes that he is about to die. He drags himself into a cave and falls into a deep sleep. When he awakens, he is confronted by the sight of a tiger and her cub. What follows is a comic narrative about their domestic life together, as the tiger nurses him back to health.[3]
Translations [ edit ]
Ed Emery has carried out an authorised English translation.[4]
